Information for Students

WHERE DO I BEGIN?

Career ExplorationStudents who are just beginning the career development process need to perform considerable
self-examination before considering an academic major or career path. All College
of Business and Innovation students will take Career Development I and II, BUAD 2000
and 3000. These two required courses lead students on a logical progression through
the four stages of career development. However, students who wish to get a 'head start',
prior to taking Career Development I and II, may considering visiting The Occupational Outlook Handbook or Americas's CareerInfoNet, two of the most widely used, respected resources for occupational information.

Resume Writing ResourcesResumes are living documents subject to continual revision. Although there are abundant
available resources, students are advised to have trusted professors, mentors, colleagues,
and supervisors review their resumes to offer feedback. The College's Career Development
Lecturer will review resumes and offer constructive feedback during her office hours.
Prior to visiting Amy, review some of the following resources for resume assistance.

Job Search StrategiesSeeking internship, cooperative education or full-time employment opportunities involves
more than surfing internet web boards and submitting plain text resumes. Students
should be versed and skilled in more than one job search technique to maximize the
likelihood of securing gainful employment. The following resources highlight different
job search methods.
